Give thanks with a grat
eful heart Give thanks to the Holy One Give thanks because He's given Jesus Christ, His Son And now let the weak say, "I am strong" Let the poor say, "I am rich Because of what the Lord has done for us"

“Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; his love endures forever” (1 Chronicles 16:34).

Before we knew Christ—most of us weren’t lovable; rather we were self-centered and focused on pleasing ourselves. Yet God looked down and loved us so much that He gave His only Son, Jesus Christ to die for us. We give thanks because we are loved passionately and unconditionally throughout eternity.

1 Chronicles 16 KJV

Give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus”
(1 Thessalonians 5:18).

It’s hard to think about giving thanks to God when life seems overwhelmingly difficult. However we can give thanks because God will never leave nor forsake us when times are down. He freely gives us wisdom, grace, and strength to move forward in every situation. A grateful heart in times of trouble can be encouraged to trust in the Lord at all times.

1 Thessalonians 5 KJV

With everything else that we think about, it's so good and important to get back to the Godward perspective of thankfulness always. :)

Love this sentiment, esp. with Thanksgiving Day coming up. We used to sing this song in church back in the day.

Thanks for sharing it. Blessings to you!
